What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a remote backend engineering role where I can build reliable Python and Django systems, work on APIs and event-driven architecture, and grow through production-grade engineering challenges.

I built Kamba, a Django and Django REST Framework gateway for Safaricom Daraja payments that provides exactly-once webhook processing, automatic payment recovery, unified event schemas, and signed event delivery.

I deployed Kamba as a modular monolith using PostgreSQL, Redis, Celery, and Docker Compose. My medical microbiology background strengthens my approach to data integrity, protocol adherence, systematic troubleshooting, and correctness in edge cases.
